In order to provide drivers with an alternative to petroleum-derived fuels, Propel builds, owns and operates public biofuels fueling sites.

In conjunction with the financing, Peter Mills, Managing Director of @Ventures, has joined Propel's board of directors.

During his 10 years with Starbucks, Mr. Rubinfeld was responsible for the company's growth from 100 stores to more than 3,800 stores worldwide.

"Many consumers would like to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels, but currently have no choice at the pump," said Matt Horton, a Principal with @Ventures. "Whether they are motivated by the environment, national security, or a desire to support farmers, people need access to alternative fuels in order to make a difference. We believe that Propel is addressing a critical need in the biofuels industry by making biofuels more readily available to consumers."
